Usually after a game releases, and with reviews pouring in, it is extremely unlikely for any game to go up in score. Generally the trend is a slow slight decline until the score settles. Uncharted 2 was sitting at a 96 for a little over a week, looking as if it would settle in that area. Just a moment ago I checked Metacritic and it has been bumped up a point on Metacritic back to a 97. Discuss?

Horrah?

Yeah ! 1 whole point !

Does it really make a difference?

You know a game is good when the lowest score is a 9.

Well I just thought I would post this because obviously its crazy unusual for a Metecritic average to go up and I found it interesting. For awhile here I think people were expecting it to settle in at 96.

yepp thats awsome----and it is important because its the highest rated exclusive *next to mario galaxy ^^

And has 32 perfect scores. 

Of course it does ! 1 whole point = 1/100 of the score ! 1% more baby !

If it is 96, the game is bad...but 97 is awesome..If it was 98 i would buy 2 copies because its SO awesome. Metacritic isan excellent judge of quality.

yes it does

when your up in the 90's every point matters.
